Would you like peace, joy, self-control, patience, good health and many more blessings in 2019? Make it a New Year resolution to seek first, to be firmly established in your mind and thoughts, in His righteousness, and you will be given these as well. 

While there are many specific verses in the bible about healing, peace, faith and other things we care about, the answer to everything we need is based on one crucial piece of knowledge. A lot of people claim to know it, but most do not live as though they believe it.
The fruit of the Spirit (peace, patience, joy, virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, love, healing, health, financial stability) is based on this knowledge.

The knowledge I am talking about is presented clearly in these three verses:

Everything we want and need is tied up in our knowledge of our righteousness in Christ. We are as right with the Father as Jesus is because of His shed blood. All of God’s blessings—including the defeat of reoccurring sin in our lives, healing, freedom from depression and favor—are reserved for those who are firmly established in His righteous in their minds, which means “right with God.” This study is not about doing more, serving more, praying more or being perfect. It is about: right believing that always leads to right living.

Jesus poured out His blood for the New Covenant of grace and truth, replacing the Old Covenant letter of the law of Moses. Believers are exclusively under the New Covenant, the last will and testament of Jesus that began after the cross.
